NO REVIEW GRANTED.

Acting Secty. EsuldrOw viii Not Re0pe the
Nosthern Pacific Laud Indemnity.
WASHINGTON, September 24.-Acting.
Secretary Muldrow to day denied the
motion filed by the Northern Pacific Rail-
road Company, asking review and revisal
OF the departmental decision OF August Is,
1887, in matter of restoring to the public
dominion land heretofore Withdrawn for
indemnity purposes under the grant. Ii is
alleged by counsel for the company that
the Secretary erred in deoying to
the compsny the right to select
indie mnity lands outside the State or Ter
ritoIy in which the loss occurred; and in
denying that the joint resolution of May
81, 1870 established second and addition.
al indemnity belt beyond the first.
Upon the first point, the acting Secretary
say that the language of the granting act
in this case does not differ from that OF
gress for similar purposes, and which have
been decided over and over again by the
Supreme Court to mean that the compa-
MES have the right to select land in lieu of
oil the sscertained losses within the pre-
scribed limits to the extent that they may
befound therein.
AS; to the second point, the acting Secre-
tary says: stripped of its verbisge the
act Cointed resolutions of May 81, 1870)
provides that in case of loss of lands with
in the limits prescribed by its charter,
the company shall receive other lands
within ten miles on each side of said road,
beyond the limits prescribed in said char
ter. 1t is insisted that the words "limits
prescribed by its charter" and
Limits prescribed by said charter -
meant two entirely different things; that
the first means the grant OF twenty and
forty mile limits, while the second means
TIL Indemnity of thirty and fiftv miles on
each side of the road. On this condition
hangs the whole claim of the company to
its double indemnity belt.
The Acting Secretary discusses this
point at some length. He denies that
there is anything in the act itself, the
title Of the act or in the debates winch
sustains such contention.

A Naval Reserve.

New YORK, September 24.-About fifty
prominent steamship owners, yatchs-
men, merchants and ex-marine revenue
officers, yesterday, held meeting in the
United States circuit court here and dis
cussed the advisability OF establishing q
naval reserve. Elbridge T. Gerry, commo-
dore of the New York yacht club, was
made chairman. The object of the meet
ing was stated to be a consideration of the
organization of q naval reserve, which in
time of war would be an auxiliary navy.
Just as the militia IS an auxiliary to the
regular navy. The reserve navy of Eng
land was cited, with its 25, 600 men and the
like precautions of Canada were referred
to. The steam yachts of the New York
yacht club-some of which developed
from fourteen TO eighteen and one-half
knots per hour-would make the finest
torpedo boats In the world. G. w. Miller,
manager of the Stonington line. offered q
series of resolutions approving the estab-
lishment by Congress at Its next session of
q naval reserve, to consist of officers and
men from the mercantile, marine, yacht
men and watermen generally; and Of
vessels TO be built with reference to use In
time of war as auxiliary to the regular
navy such reserve TO be established on the
great lakes as well as the seaboard. The
Secretary of the Navy is to be consulted
by committee of ten, as to the further
ance of the project

The Indiana miners Strike.

CHICAGO, September ga Vincennes
Ind, special says: The coal miners
throughout this section are still out on
strike. 500 miners in Washington are
out at Cabell and Coos mines, 800 at Mont
gomery at the Union mines, abont 100 at
Rogers mines in Pike County, about 100
at Biedermier's mines in Pike County, and
500 in the mines around Evansville.
The Washington miners demand COO per
ton for miners and 81 So for day hands.
The miners below the Ohio and Mississippi
railroad are all out on strike. Their spe-
cial demand is that the mines south Of the
Ohio and Mississippi railway will be oper-
ated on the same scale as the mines north
of this point-that is the scale fixed by the
miners and owners federation. The COM
panies have all refused the demand, and
the miners holding meetings each day and
are determined to hold out. Arbitration,
however, may solve the problem before
many days. The miners IN the Evansville
region demand an increase of 1870 per ton.
The price paid formerly was II &c. Bieder-
mier's men got their demand. but they re-
fuse to go to work until the district troub-
les are settled. The miners also demand
pay every two weeks.

vENEzU BIAS TROUBLE.
England Demanding ReparatiOn for the
Detention OF Two schooners.

Detention or Two schOoners.
NEw YORK, September 24.-The sailing of
the English man-of-wsr Pylades from
Trinidad to Laguayrs, to demand indem-
nifty from the government of Venezuela for
the detention of the schooners Josephine
and Henriette, would seem to point TO an
active policy on the part of Great Britain
in her dispute with the South American
Republic. Senior De Silva, the Consul GEN
eral of Venezuela, in this city, said: 1.-THE
two schoOners mentioned have been de-
tanned for noncompliance with the Gus
toms regulations, and they were seized Just
as q vessel which did not comply with the
regulations of this government might have
been taken. In my opinion 1t is merely
an attempt of the Tory ministry in England
to initiate Mr.. Gladstone's Egyptian war.
They have got themselves into so much
trouble in Ireland that they hope to cover
il up by vigorous policy in Venezuls-
But what we look for is the interference OF
the United States.
THE question has been before your
State Department for some time now, and
ii is really q serious one. The territory
which England has assumed control of is
larger than British Guinea, and it is ter
ritory which Lord Granville has acknowl-
edged belonged to Venezuela They have
taken the Island of Barima, which Is at the
mouth Of the 0rinoco, and they permit
the entrance OF goods from English colon
les free of duty. They levy taxes upon
the people and act in all matters as the
rulers Of the country.
1.-THE real gist of this matter is the con-
troll of the OriEoco river. Its control
means an enormous influence upon the
South American republics, and an inhu-
eDce such as the United States should have
CT use to dislike exceedingly.
LAS far as war goes, the English could,
of course, blockade the venezuelan ports of
the United States would allow them to do
30. II they attempted TO invade the coun.
try 1T is probable that the troops wo1ld
die like sheep in the fevers of the coast
line, the Terra Caliente. However, before
matters got to that point, | suppose the
United States would Interfere"

Accompanied by a Prison Official Attends
His Wife's Funeral Here Last Monday.
The Mitchell News, september IL.
Sunday last the Southern Prison officials
received a telegram from Governor Gray
instructing them to send Lse Jones, a life
prisoner, 10 Mitchell SO that he might at
tend the funeral of his wife: So acting
upon orders, Deputy Warden Barnes
brought him out Monday morning. When
Jones first received the sad intelligence of
his wlfe's sudden demise it almost pros
treted him, but he controlled himself suf-
fciently 10 take the journey, and when the
train drew up at the platform here
there was a large crowd of sympa-
thetic friends to meet him and
Me- Barnes released him from the shackles
and allowed him to circulate among his
friends with that freedom known only to
the person who has not q watchful eye
upon them. After shaking hands with his
many friends that consisted of cur best
citizens, they proceeded to the residence
where the wife lay robed ready for the
silent grave. The meeting between the
eleven year-old soa and father was heart
rendiDg, the piteous cries of the youth
mingled with the sobs of grief that came
flom the father is utterly indescribable
S'rong men were compelled to turn aside
al wipe the tear Of sympathy from their
eye caused by this scene. At D. m. the
body was conveyed to the Baptist church
where a large concourse of friends had
assembled to take q farewell look at the
corpse. Rev. ]. NJ. Stalker officiated in q
simple and affectionate manner, rehearsing
the past life of the dead one and illustrating
her many virtues as loving wife and 8
kind mother. The funeral cortege was the
largest ever known in Mitchell, and the
remains were lain In their last resting place
in the presence of 1000 people. The pris-
oner returned to the Dayson house for sup
per and received friends until late hour.
All united in extending their sympathy to
the beJeaved father and son. There is a
strong feeling among our citizens that he
be pardoned, and had Gov. Gray been pres
ent and witnessed the hospitality shown
the prisoner he possibly would change his
views.
Our people are loud in their praise
toward Mr.. Barnes for the unassuming
manner that characterized his movements
during the entire day and night. He re-
turned Wednesday morning with the pris-
oner.
